Ok, so yesterday was the first time I got a shot from my tree stand. I had a perfect 15yard, broadside shot on a doe, sailed clear over her back, per the path of the Luminock!
As I did some reading, it appears that I should have been aiming a few inches up from the bottom of her body in order to hit vitals. I was holding dead on the vitals right behind the shoulder. My plan is to use my climber behind the house to test this theory before shooting again in the woods. I was extremely disgusted with myself to say the least, I hope I get another chance??[sad2]
